The book considers several fundamental questions, including how self-assembly of various soft materials with the internal structure at the nanoscale can be understood, controlled and in future used in the newly emerging field of soft nanotechnology. The book offers readers a view on the subject from different perspectives, combining modern experimental approaches from physical chemistry and physics with various theoretical techniques from physics, mathematics and the most advanced computer modeling. It is the first book of this sort in the field. All chapters are written by leading international experts, bringing together experience from Canada, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, the Netherlands, Russia, Singapore, Spain and the USA.

A chemist might not have experience at working with cell cultures or a physicist may have no idea how to make the gold colloid they need for calibrating an atomic force microscope. The interdisciplinary approach of the book will help you to quickly synthesize information from multiple perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNanoscience research is also characterized by rapid movement within disciplines. The amount of time it takes wading through papers and chasing down academics is frustrating and wasteful and our reviewers seem to suggest this work would give an excellent starting point for their work. The current source of published data is either in journal articles, which requires highly advanced knowledge of background information, or books on the subject, which can skim over the essential details of preparations. Having a cookbook to hand to flick through and from which you may select a preparation acts as a good source of contact both to researchers and those who supervise them alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, therefore, supports fundamental nanoscience experimentation. It is by intention much more user-friendly than traditionally published works, which too-frequently assumes state of the art knowledge. Moreover, you can pick up this book and find a synthesis to suit your needs without digging through specialist papers or tracking someone down who eventually may or may not be able to help.

A chemist might not have experience at working with cell cultures or a physicist may have no idea how to make the gold colloid they need for calibrating an atomic force microscope. The interdisciplinary approach of the book will help you to quickly synthesize information from multiple perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNanoscience research is also characterized by rapid movement within disciplines. The amount of time it takes wading through papers and chasing down academics is frustrating and wasteful and our reviewers seem to suggest this work would give an excellent starting point for their work. The current source of published data is either in journal articles, which requires highly advanced knowledge of background information, or books on the subject, which can skim over the essential details of preparations. Having a cookbook to hand to flick through and from which you may select a preparation acts as a good source of contact both to researchers and those who supervise them alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, therefore, supports fundamental nanoscience experimentation. It is by intention much more user-friendly than traditionally published works, which too-frequently assumes state of the art knowledge. Moreover, you can pick up this book and find a synthesis to suit your needs without digging through specialist papers or tracking someone down who eventually may or may not be able to help. Once you have used the recipe the book would then act as a reference guide for how to analyze these materials and what to look out for.\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/b\u003e- An explanation of how to use the book and a brief overview of the areas that will be covered and how they apply to active science today.

Beswick of bms AG and David J. Dunn of bms North America \u003cbr\u003eISBN 978-1-85957-360-0 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRapra Market Report\u003cbr\u003ePages 134\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSummary\u003c\/h5\u003e\nThis latex market report gives a comprehensive introduction to both natural and synthetic polymers in one volume. This is a “hot” subject because of the tremendous changes in the market. These have arisen from the increased use of disposable gloves in the medical industry and the search for elastomers which do not promote allergic reactions. Also, latex products are being used extensively as alternatives to solvent-based systems such as adhesives, sealants, and coatings, because of global legislation concerning the use of volatile and flammable solvents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe range of applications of latex is extensive. Polymer latices are used in paints and coatings, textiles, non-wovens, packaging, construction (mainly in adhesives and binders), furniture, packaging, paper (e.g., coatings), medical equipment, personal protective equipment, carpet backing, adhesives, polish, belts, seals, etc. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe global annual consumption of natural rubber latex is running at just over 7 million tons. Natural rubber latex is particularly widely used in medical gloves, thread and condom applications. Gloves are by far the largest market sector, consuming around 60% by weight. The market is being driven by the advent of AIDS and other pandemic diseases, and the need to protect healthcare workers from infection. Production quality must be high to eliminate pinholes and provide an adequate barrier. This is a very competitive market and much of the production industry has been moved to Asia to reduce costs. This, in turn, has to lead to new standards being introduced, such as the Standard Malaysian Gloves (SMG). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNatural rubber latex is discussed in depth in this report from cultivation practices to manufacturing methods and new developments. Allergic reactions have been reported to residual proteins in latex. The nature, incidence and potential market impact of this are discussed. Attempts are being made to replace natural rubber with synthetics, but currently, this is not generally cost effective. The key properties of natural latex are described in the report. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA wide range of synthetic latices is available including styrene-butadiene copolymers (SBR), acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymers, polychloroprene, acrylic polymers, vinyl acetate polymers, vinyl acetate-ethylene polymers, vinyl chloride polymers and copolymers, polybutadiene and polyisoprene. SBR is the most commonly used synthetic latex – around 2.4 million tons are consumed globally each year.

This is a “hot” subject because of the tremendous changes in the market. These have arisen from the increased use of disposable gloves in the medical industry and the search for elastomers which do not promote allergic reactions. Also, latex products are being used extensively as alternatives to solvent-based systems such as adhesives, sealants, and coatings, because of global legislation concerning the use of volatile and flammable solvents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe range of applications of latex is extensive. Polymer latices are used in paints and coatings, textiles, non-wovens, packaging, construction (mainly in adhesives and binders), furniture, packaging, paper (e.g., coatings), medical equipment, personal protective equipment, carpet backing, adhesives, polish, belts, seals, etc. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe global annual consumption of natural rubber latex is running at just over 7 million tons. Natural rubber latex is particularly widely used in medical gloves, thread and condom applications. Gloves are by far the largest market sector, consuming around 60% by weight. The market is being driven by the advent of AIDS and other pandemic diseases, and the need to protect healthcare workers from infection. Production quality must be high to eliminate pinholes and provide an adequate barrier. This is a very competitive market and much of the production industry has been moved to Asia to reduce costs. This, in turn, has to lead to new standards being introduced, such as the Standard Malaysian Gloves (SMG). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNatural rubber latex is discussed in depth in this report from cultivation practices to manufacturing methods and new developments. Allergic reactions have been reported to residual proteins in latex. The nature, incidence and potential market impact of this are discussed. Attempts are being made to replace natural rubber with synthetics, but currently, this is not generally cost effective. The key properties of natural latex are described in the report. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA wide range of synthetic latices is available including styrene-butadiene copolymers (SBR), acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymers, polychloroprene, acrylic polymers, vinyl acetate polymers, vinyl acetate-ethylene polymers, vinyl chloride polymers and copolymers, polybutadiene and polyisoprene. SBR is the most commonly used synthetic latex – around 2.4 million tons are consumed globally each year. This report describes production methods, applications, and markets. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe worldwide structure of the latex industry is outlined here. The natural rubber industry in Asian countries, North America and Europe are described. Asia is the key area for production. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe latex market is spread across the globe, making it less sensitive to regional fluctuations and economic cycles. Application areas are growing with the requirements for medical gloves and condoms, and the use of latices as substitutes for solvent-based systems. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Rapra Natural and

Several thousand copies of this book are used worldwide. R. Lambourne, the Editor of the first edition assembled the team of leading specialists in different fields of this multidisciplinary subject. They had the knowledge and experience to write with authority. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe paints and coatings technology is composed of very diverse scientific subjects too difficult for one author to master. For example, color measurement and paint rheology require very different expertise. Early in the process, it was decided that the highest quality book can be obtained if experts in different fields will be given tasks to write about the subject they have practiced for many years. On the other hand, the multi-authored books usually suffer from the lack of coordination. To address this matter, authors and editor working for one company were selected to make team effort possible. The aim was to fill the existing gap in the scientific literature which is lacking a modern textbook\/monograph on paints and coatings.

Several thousand copies of this book are used worldwide. R. Lambourne, the Editor of the first edition assembled the team of leading specialists in different fields of this multidisciplinary subject. They had the knowledge and experience to write with authority. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe paints and coatings technology is composed of very diverse scientific subjects too difficult for one author to master. For example, color measurement and paint rheology require very different expertise. Early in the process, it was decided that the highest quality book can be obtained if experts in different fields will be given tasks to write about the subject they have practiced for many years. On the other hand, the multi-authored books usually suffer from the lack of coordination. To address this matter, authors and editor working for one company were selected to make team effort possible. The aim was to fill the existing gap in the scientific literature which is lacking a modern textbook\/monograph on paints and coatings. The changes in chemical and paint industries in the last 12 years made sections of the book ready for a thorough revision, thus this second edition become necessary.
